The guy who owns this place is a major dick. Some very eccentric customers. Those 2 men who live together in the house completely covered in paintings and tat. Talk about the odd couple.

As long as something looks expensive that's all they care about. Even if it looks hideous which most of this stuff does.
As my elder daughter's partner would say about some of the rich & idle female customers " Come the Revolution they'd be first in front of the firing squad "
It sounds like Roger Allam.
They believe these objects and wealth makes them 'Better' people.
The owner 'I lay down then the law' -,what is going on in his head to give him such an inflated sense of self. Poor man.
If any of these people were going unfortunate to be stricken with a terminal illnesa, then nothing, nothing of these 'things' they ssurround themselve would mean absolutely NOTHING overnight.
Peace.

1. How much did the massive gorilla sell for, and
2. What's that strange eye thing at the ad break?
The big eye is a trailer for another show.
I.doubt they've ever had to empty their penny jar to buy some food to eat for the day.
Thanks, thought that must be the case - which one though
I thought big brother at first, but that's channel 5 now
All the 'characters' looked angry and tight-lipped.
A portrait of misery.
Getting highly annoyed with 'the millionaire owner', OK he's a millionaire, I didn't need to hear it the first time let alone the 3rd or 4th.
OK he owns the business and he's a PITA to work with, then again he can't be too far up his own arris, his staff haven't fudged it, even those who didn't say it gave heavy clues about his personality.
If they've done that on camera, I'd say he's a PITA, knows he's PITA and wont sack people for not liking him or saying nice things about him.
It was..... I love his voice.
I thought it was all a bit dull. Lily, songwriter and psychotherapist........... yes well, said it all really. Usual assortment of loons and oddballs, at least one of the gay couple can now afford his new teeth.
Who looked like Adrian Edmundson:p
If they can't shift the furniture they should tell the owners to lower the reserve or take it away
Before watching, I thought it was going to be a bit like Del Boys and Dealers, concentrating on the buyers. I don't know about others, but antiques is a passion of mine, which this programme did nothing to incite.
shame there is no more personalities as not sure I can watch him again.
I'd have rather seen more of the objects that came through the doors and customers in general without looking for the characters.
The boss wasn't 'that' bad, he's self aware so not a complete knob, I couldn't suffer though the way he talks to some of the staff, I'd rare-up and stomp out the door, very quickly.
